Facial Treatment

Many of us make facial treatments as regular appointments in the calendar, some people do it once a month, some even do it as much as every week. No doubt that facial treatment is a way to pamper ourselves, but we need to find the right facial for our needs with all the choices available today.

Types of Facials

Basic clean up - The simplest form of a facial in which your skin will be cleansed, exfoliated and moisturized. It helps clear up the blackheads and whitehead, in addition, preventing and reducing other skin concerns. This type of facial can be done on all skin types and is usually selected by those under the age of twenty-five. It will reduce tanning, remove dirt and blackheads while giving the skin a clean and glowing complexion.

Normal and special facial - Normal facial helps to cleanse, steam and massage the skin. Those who aren’t prone to acne should choose this facial and they are generally cheaper. Since the skin is massaged for a longer period of time these normal facials are different from the basic clean up.

A hypoallergenic cream is used during a specialized facial to help moisturize the skin. There are different types of face masks that can be applied depending on the skin type of the individual.Its special cleansing and rejuvenating technique is a better option for those with sensitive skins when undergoing a facial.

Galvanic facial - Uses a Galvanic gadget that give a steady, direct galvanic current to introduce water-soluble substance to the skin. The current improves the penetration of products through the skin, making it easier to treat specific problems. This type of facial is best for those with dry, dehydrated skin since it helps improve moisture retention. This facial also helps to remove congestion.
